Original artwork description:

“There was an old belief that in the embers
Of all things their primordial form exists,
And cunning alchemists
Could re-create the rose with all its members
From its own ashes, but without the bloom,
Without the lost perfume
Ah me! what wonder-working, occult science
Can from the ashes in our hearts once more
The rose of youth restore?
What craft of alchemy can bid defiance
To time and change, and for a single hour
Renew this phantom-flower?” ― Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

A floral abstract in soft orange, blue and magenta. Alchemy will arrive with the sides painted white and ready to hang as is or you may frame it, if that is your preference.
